Brief Answer:
nerve conduction study
Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for asking HCM,
I understand your concern. NRV CNDJ TEST 13/STUDIES is a revised short description of "nerve conduction study". This short description has it's number, 95913. This is a HCPCS code. HCPCS Codes are numbers assigned to every task and service a medical practitioner may provide to a Medicare patient including medical, surgical and diagnostic services. Since everyone uses the same codes to mean the same thing, they ensure uniformity. They are based on the CPT Codes (Current Procedural Technology codes) developed by the American Medical Association.
In your case someone was at nerve conduction study, a medical diagnostic test commonly used to evaluate the function, especially the ability of electrical conduction, of the motor and sensory nerves of the human body.

how is this done? any preparation needed i.e.. medication added oe stopped?
Brief Answer:
No special prepare
Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you fir your question.
During the test, the nerve is stimulated, usually with surface electrode patches attached to the skin. Two electrodes are placed on the skin over the nerve. One electrode stimulates the nerve with a very mild electrical impulse and the other electrode records it. The resulting electrical activity is recorded by another electrode. This is repeated for each nerve being tested.
No special prepare is needed. I hope this answer was helpful.
